All sorted for my first ever woodland skirmish tomorrow at Holmbush DOGTAG Airsoft (planning on going to the Epsom Tunnels sometime next week for my first ever CQC also)! My sight is zeroed, the hop up is adjusted nicely and all of my attachments are fitted and all mags feed well! Judging from the Facebook page, it looks as if there'll be at least 70 people there so it should be great! I'm optimistic that it'll be dry throughout the day, fingers crossed! :D2 points -

Looks good mate. I'd advise cranking that holster high up as you can though. Those nylon all-in-1 types tend to sit low but that's the first ever drop-calf I've seen, I'd recommend cutting some of the strap if it won't adjust much above your knee (and if it's possible to do so).2 points

Hello Everyone this is my first post on this forum, Hope everyone had a GREAT Christmas and new year, This Year I have decided it is time to take up Airsoft as a major hobby, I have thought about it a few times over the years and now I am going for it and REALLY looking forward to it. Since November I have done nothing but read up rules find my local sites drag in some mates to team with and even start collecting my gear, And I have just this moment brought my first airsoft gun to get me started as I don`t want to keep hiring, If you calculate it up hiring each time you could have easily brought you own even if it is two-tone and eventually pay for the gun by the time you get your Ukara, (If incorrect please don't correct lol) Although many places recommend not doing this I have decided to jump straight into the sniper position as I enjoy Hiding and being able to take out targets from a distant without my presence being know, I also like the idea of having that one accurate shot to take down the target instead of spraying and praying. My Gear so far: 1. Molle Pistol leg drop 2. Tactical gloves 3. Viper knee & Elbow pads 4. Viper Tactical belt 5. Bolle safety glasses, Will be getting goggles with mesh mask as well. 6. Jack Pyke Tundra boots 7. AND I have made my own 3 piece Ghillie suit which has taken me nearly 3 weeks to make now currently sitting at 80% complete 8. Sabre Airgunner 3-9x42 AO Scope 9. FN Herstal SPR A5M (Sniper Rifle) Desired rifle is a G&G GR25 reason behind this is because its a Semi and looks pure awesome, As I`m left handed I struggle to shoot a bolt action however just to get started I`ll learn to love it and bare it until I am Ukara approved. Happy Shooting!!!1 point

Revision quietly releases thermal lens for the Locusts
Airsoft_Mr B reacted to BrightCandle for a topic
I don't know when it happened but they certainly weren't available in the middle of last year. Now they haven't made a product pack containing the lens but they do have them on sale individually: http://www.revisionmilitary.com/store/desert-locust-thermal-replacement-lens.html There seem to be no suppliers in the UK with them available yet (tactical-kit does the goggles but not the lens yet) but I have asked them to get some in. I wonder if all the manufacturers are going to do this soon, fans or no the thermal lens seem to be gaining popularity with players.1 point -

Any decent plate carriers sub £100?
Airsoft_Mr B reacted to jcheeseright for a topic
Reference condor, people give it a bad rap because a lot of airsofters use it, but it's made in the US and berry compliant. That alone puts it a jump ahead of quite a lot of the clone gear.1 point -

Yeah that should still be fine, we were using them in Hero 3's recording at 1080p 30fps and never had any problems. Don't think the requirements will have gone up.1 point -

For a sniper, I would suggest the best sidearm is the TM MK23 Socom, purely because it is very quiet and accurate.1 point

Bar 10 looks good, I`ll put it onto my list of possible, If I can get a lefty bolt action I wont be going AEG, Just had a peak at some mods people have done to make them left handed I could do these but I`ll do it before I get my next gun incase its a fail. Cheers Bullet and when my ghillie is complete I`ll post it1 point

First Official Skirmish - Tips & Advice
Sitting Duck reacted to Chock for a topic
Draw a little sketch of the layout of the place, based on that aerial view picture which you posted, making sure you write in the names of the locations on your drawing. You can take the sketch with you in your pocket to assist you, but that's not the main reason I'm suggesting that you draw the layout (if it was, you might just as easily print it off), no, the reason for sketching it, is that the act of actually drawing it out and writing the names on your sketch will fix the layout in your head. Doing that is a common recon technique among special forces, incidentally. But as far as you are concerned, it is worth doing because there is nothing worse than being at a skirmish with everyone who is a regular player at that site saying stuff like: 'okay, we'll head up through xxx, and cut round the back of yyy, because they're bound to be covering the Eastern approach to zzz', when you have no idea what those places are, nor where they are in relation to one another because you are not familiar with the layout. 120 rounds is a bit on the lean side for a skirmish, so be sure to stay on semi auto (semi-auto is best anyway most of the time). Take a speed loader, a small gas can and a small bag of ammo with you in addition to your main reload stuff. If that stuff is small enough to carry on person, you can reload a mag when in cover, however, if that stuff is too big to carry, you can cache it in your spawn point, so take some kind of bag that'll make it obvious it is yours and that is waterproof, and leave the necessary stuff in it, so that you can fall back and rearm if necessary, or simply re-arm if you get hit and have to go to your respawn point. You will get covered in sh*t, especially if you hit the deck and crawl or roll to cover (don't be shy to crawl about and stuff by the way, it's all part of the fun, you'll be surprised how many people do not hit the deck incidentally, but they're the ones who get hit). If you are driving there, take either a change of pants or a plastic bag to put on your car seat for when you drive home, otherwise your car seat will get covered in sh*t too. Your knees will get especially wet from kneeling down, so if you have kneepads, take those (even one will do), otherwise, you can 'waterproof' the knees of your combat pants temporarily, by cutting out squares of a plastic bag and taping those to the inside knee area of your combat pants (might wanna do the ass area too). If you are gonna be there all day, you might also consider wearing either long johns or cycling leggings under your combat pants, because you will be out in the cold for hours, and it will probably help, after all, you can always take 'em off if you are too warm, but you can't put em on if you didn't bring 'em. Don't worry about keeping dry from rain though, in the woods it won't be hitting you much even if it is raining pretty hard, but the forest floor will almost certainly be muddy and wet, so you still need to ensure you don't end up piss wet through all day. If you are wearing leather combat boots, polish the living sh*t out of them, so that they are waterproofed, this will also mean that mud washes off them easier at the end of the day. Two pairs of socks is not a bad idea too, since they will keep your feet warmer when they are out in the cold wet mud all day. If you have gloves, take those too. Wear lower face protection and neck protection, because you'll be getting sniper fire at 500 fps, and that fecking hurts, especially in the cold, and if it hits you in the mouth, it will smash your teeth in. At a push, a shemagh or other decent scarf will cover your face and neck if you have nothing else, but be aware that a typical black and white shemagh stands out a lot in woodland terrain, so if necessary, dirty it up with mud, or you will be a bullet magnet, similarly, you can stick twigs and leaves etc in your helmet (if you wear one) to break up your profile a bit. If you don't wear a helmet, then wear a cap, it will cover your forehead, and you will be glad of that if a sniper round hits you there. Camo it with mud if it is brightly coloured. Make sure everything is secure on your gear, you are far more likely to be diving about and crawling in woodland terrain than you are in cqb, and if anything is loose, you will lose it, so tape sh*t up, put stuff in secure pouches. Tighten all the screws and bolts on your weapons, because unlike with indoor CQB, if something drops off your weapon in a forest, you ain't gonna find it, it's gone for good. Leave car keys and phones and stuff like that back in the safe zone (I've seen more than one person get their fancy 500 quid smartphone shot to sh*t by a sniper BB when it was in the leg pocket of their combat pants lol), and looking for a set of car keys in an entire forest by torchlight when you are tired and cold and wet at the end of a day's skirmishing is not something you wanna be doing. Take some basic repair sh*t with you, gaffer tape, electrical tape, a screwdriver, an unjamming rod, pliers, some silicone lubricant, etc. You can fix almost anything with gaffer tape. Be a sneaky bastard, crawl through the sh*t that nobody else will crawl through, hide in the bush that everyone else thinks is too tight to hide in. And if you have a pistol, take it, you might think you won't use a pistol at the kind of ranges a woodland fight takes place at, but you'd be wrong, you'll be sneaking up to fortifications and will end up on literally the other side of a bit of plywood or a bush, from your enemies, I can guarantee it will happen, and in those circumstances, a pistol is worth its weight in gold. If you have a rifle sling, be sure to take that too, carrying even a light weapon all day gets tiring.1 point -

It's the idea that a PC cover your vital organs / ribs area, but not all are designed like that and I think on most people they should ride a bit lower. Best PC IMO will be the Warrior AS DCS, can't get anything better for the price.1 point -
